    I hope the picture loads. If not, I hope someone can help me figure out why not.

    This package was delivered on Friday but I picked it up this AM. The sender really nailed my style and I'm extremely grateful for all these wonderful beers, bottles (so rare in ON) and the artwork! Some of the coolest artwork I've seen.

    Unfortunately, one beer didn't make it. The backcountry brewing beer took some damaged & managed a small leak that persisted. Pouring out the remainder was a sin as it smelled delicious. Nothing to worry about though as the haul is excellent.

    On to my mystery sender. There were a few BC senders, but only two had hints that could have worked for me. I guess it was fiery1 though & if I'm correct, one of his hints was "though disappointing you aren't a fan of a particular style I very much enjoy" ... My guess is that is the Barleywine!


    Beer List :
    • Fuggles & Warlock Beam Me Up
    • Driftwood Singularity
    • Dageraad Tous Les Jours
    • Steamworks Pumpkin Ale
    • Ole Yale Sasquatch Stout
    • Dawn Patrol Coffee Porter
    • Smugglers Trail Black Gold Coffee Stout
    • Another Beer Co Born on a Train
    • Bomber Brewing Citizen Cane
    • Phillips Brewing Eclipse Black Velvet Stout
    • Bad Tattoo Brewing Co Peanutbutter Chocolate Porter
    • Twin Sails Brewing Two Straws
    • Longwood Brewing Full Patch
    • Fuggles & Warlock Dragoon Imperial Stout
    • Twin Sails Brewing Nitro Con Leche
    • Backcountry Brewing Were All Fine...

    Much thanks to my sender/fiery1 & to Electros for setting this up, yet again! I will dig in to these tomorrow.

    Got a great box from a mystery sender, as the 'from' address was a business address. :grin: All these are new to me, so I'm excited to give them a try. The wife got a kick out of the Starbucks themed art on one of them too. Thanks again!

    Hope you like them! It was a tad hard to get all them in your abv range, but they are unique and delicious.

    the PSL was hilarious. Great artwork on it.

    I think the Bruery was from the ANBL, but definitely a few years back.

    100% on the DDH'ing taking HJH up a notch!

    I recently had a Melange from that stock. It was damn nice and mellow. I think there are a few left at Experience in Moncton and York in Fredericton.

    Thank you so much, Jason - and super thank you for the additional bottles that are still coming. Wow, wasn't expecting that.

    Apologies for the beers I slugged back and returned the empties before taking this pic (I do that all the time).

    Thank you very much, Charles. Every time you've been paired with me, you've been ridiculously generous. I am blessed to have a generous sender like you.

    (Sorry if I drank any of your beers before the pic was taken)
